The Air France KLM Flying Blue loyalty program is well-known for its monthly rotating series of Promo Rewards, which offer up to 25% discounts on short-haul and long-haul redemptions on Air France and KLM flights.
The May 2025 Promo Rewards are now live, and one of the standout offers this month is a business class redemption between Europe and Montreal for just 45,000 miles. If you’re looking for an affordable way to travel in comfort across the Atlantic, this is an excellent opportunity to book a premium cabin for less.
Other discounts are available for both economy and business class flights to destinations across North America and beyond, with travel valid through the end of October 2025.
What Are Flying Blue Promo Rewards?
Promo Rewards are a major perk to being a member of Air France KLM Flying Blue. Promo Rewards are typically released monthly and offer up to 25% off in select markets on Air France & KLM flights in various classes of service.
If you can find a Promo Reward that works for your schedule, they’re usually the best way to take advantage of the already competitive award pricing on Air France and KLM flights. Plus, the airlines have an excellent network in primary and secondary markets in North America, as well as expansive coverage across Europe.
This month’s list of long-haul KLM and Air France Promo Rewards includes the following:
- 25% discount on Air France economy awards between Europe and Atlanta (18,750 miles)

Air France KLM Flying Blue uses harmonized standard award pricing, which means that the minimum price you’ll pay for flights from North America to Europe is the same whether you fly from Boston or Vancouver:
- Economy: starting at 25,000 miles (18,750 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
- Premium economy: starting at 40,000 miles (30,000 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
- Business class: starting at 60,000 miles (45,000 miles with a 25% Promo Reward)
Promo Reward tickets are available for one-way and round-trip flights, allowing for flexibility in your travel plans. Promo Reward discounts are only applicable on the lowest standard award pricing when available, and not on dynamically priced flight segments.
Keep in mind that Flying Blue Promo Rewards come with a booking deadline. You must book the May 2025 Promo Rewards during the month of May; however, the travel window extends all the way through October 31, 2025.

Conclusion
With rotating discounts of up to 25% across its network, Air France KLM Flying Blue’s monthly Promo Rewards can offer great value for those looking to travel to, from, or through Europe.
This month’s business class Promo Reward between Europe and Montreal is a clear highlight for Canadian travellers. If you’re planning a trip to Europe this year, this is one of the most affordable and comfortable ways to cross the Atlantic in style using your points.
If you’re based in other Canadian cities served by Air France and KLM, such as Calgary, Toronto, Quebec City, or Vancouver, hopefully, we’ll see more Promo Rewards for these routes in the near future.
Unfortunately, the announced discount on business flights between Toronto and Europe are nowhere to be found. The lowest available for Toronto and any European destination is 50000 instead of the announced 37500.
The pricing has been updated now, and you should be able to find flights for 37,500 points throughout the schedule.
Thank you, T.J.!
I was just going to post an update! It took me a few emails of back and forth to explain to our friends at Flying Blue that there actually was an issue. I don’t know if it was these emails that made the difference, but I am glad to see that the prices have been updated!
Thanks again!
